Re: Online ordering.

Hi Weston,

We had great success with implementing COM_Net, to the point where we received 80% of our orders via the web. It was so successful that we were able to completely eliminate order entry staff, and our phone techs handled all remaining order processing via CSM while on the phone. It's a MAPICS application (OK, Infor/XA), integrates real time into XA COM, and has the additional advantage of staying fully available during XA backups.

We ended up growing the implementation of it to the point where it became a full-service portal (creative use of the main page), and our customers went there for documentation, marketing materials, and more.

Your affiliate can help you with that, or you could contact Lexel directly for more information at www.lexel.com. Or you can ask me more questions directly, if you would like. And no, I don't work for Lexel, but we were the 2nd company to install it, and it was definitely a major success for us. Our dealers were VERY happy with using the product - no complaints from them at all.

Hello list.

Is anyone out there, doing on-line ordering and feeding the order data back into Mapics real time?

Is there a XA app that will do that?



Thanks in advance.
